Two point charges are initially separated by a distance d. Suppose the charge of one is increased by twenty seven

Question:

Two point charges are initially separated by a distance d. Suppose the charge of one is increased by twenty seven times while the charge of the other is reduced to one-third its initial value. What would their separation distance have to be changed to in order to keep the force between them the same? (Your answer should be expressed in terms of d.) Explain your reasoning.
